I picked up the items, but I could not tell what the man was saying. The whispered "s" sound and the reverb-y echo of the cave drowned out his voice almost entirely. It looks really cool and the concept is very intriguing, but the frustration of straining my ears as hard as I could and knowing I'm missing the explanation of the mechanics anyway, was too much for me.
Thanks for the feedback, Soul
I'm definitely feeling that I overdid it on the reverb for the instructions.
If it helps, the controls are left in the description on the game's page (not the jam submission). I will see about re-cutting this audio sometime soon!
Hey! I tried running the game but I seem to be stuck in the beginning. I can look around (although with very low sensitivity), but I tried all the listed keybindings and it doesn't seem like I can interact with anything, so unfortunately, I couldn't continue and therefor can't rate the game.
Running on Windows 64-bit.
Hey Chirpy,
Thanks for the feedback!
Did you follow the verbal instructions? The voice calling out to you instructs you to look straight up. You should be able to see a white area in the ceiling with the silhouette of a man leaning into it. You won't be able to progress until you're at least a little comfortable moving the camera through complete blackness, and looking at this white area is the requirement to proceed.
Heard on the sensitivity. I may revise this and reupload this evening, this is a relatively simple change
I see! I'll try it again this evening and I'll let you know how it went!
Tried the game again and it did indeed work, but I had a lot of trouble hearing what the man was saying, for me I would've needed a clearer voice, or subtitles. I played it twice and I made it quite far (I think) both times but it seems I always missed some objectives on the way and then I couldn't turn back, however this might be a skill issue on my part! But overall the game is very cool!
